Books I Can’t Believe I’ve Read



There are books that can make me think ‘I can’t believe I’ve read that’ that have been both good and bad. The good books are just me thinking I can’t believe I’ve read that because I found them so good, and the bad ones are because they’ve been so bad I can’t believe I’ve read them.  

Good


- The Help
    - Kathryn Stockett
For me it took three times to actually finish The Help, and when I did I felt accomplished. I never thought I’d finish it. The time I tried I got further each time.

- One Day
    - David Nichols 
Just like The Help, it took multiple times for me to finish the book. 


- The Great Gatsby
    - F Scott Fitzgerald
I am not a massive reader of classic books, I own a few but more often than not I end up DNFing the book. The Great Gatsby wasn’t one of those books. I read it two times and both I loved it.


BAD

- Girl Online
    - Zoe Sugg
Ok ok so I’ll admit. I wanted the book. To see what the fuss was about, and at the time I was still watching Zoella on YouTube here and there. I read it and knew right away that I didn’t want to read anymore books by her. Don’t get me wrong I think Zoe is great in all the stuff that she has going on with her beauty range etc but for me I felt disappointed with her book, 


- Beneath The Glitter 
    - Elle and Blair Fowler
Beneath the Glitter was the first YouTubers book that I ever brought. And literally couldn’t stop laughing at the fact that it’s so similar to the movie Material Girls with the Duff Sisters.  

- Twilight Saga
    - Stephanie Meyer 
Ok hear me out. I am a Potter Head, Through and through. When Twilight and the other books in the series got really popular in 2008, I admit I read the first two books, and ordered the second two online because they weren’t at my local bookstore. Well I enjoyed the first one. Not a great deal but enjoyed it. New Moon let me down, and I never read the last two books until about a year ago. I can’t believe it took so long. The series went down hill so quickly from the second book onwards.  

- The Last Song
    - Nicholas Sparks 
I have a love hate relationship with Nicholas Sparks. I either really love his books or really hate them. The Last Song was one of those books that has always been there. I have no idea how or when I got the book and I didn’t read it until this year and I can’t believe that I did. I always said that anything with Miley Cyrus on it, or in a movie I wouldn’t watch it or read it. Well I broke that rule and read The Last Song 

- The NoteBook
    - Nicholas Sparks 
I don’t cry at the movie, I didn’t cry at the book. I don’t know why I read the book. It’s a cute book but I found it so bad.
